I thought this was rather funny

I got an email.... 'Symptoms of being over 25' and could just so identify with a whole load of em....

SYMPTOMS OF BEING OVER 25

You leave clubs before the end to "beat the rush".

You get more excited about having a roast on a Sunday than going clubbing the night before.

Before throwing the local paper away, you look through the property section.

All of a sudden, middle aged people are not 46, they are only 46.

Before going out anywhere, you ask whether there is anywhere to park.

Rather than throw a knackered pair of trainers out, you keep them because they'll be alright for the DIY or in the garden.

You buy T-shirts without anything written on them.

Instead of laughing at the innovations catalogue that falls out of the newspaper, you suddenly see both the benefit and money saving properties of most of the things that are in it.

You start to worry about your parents' health.

Pop music all starts to sound the same.

You opt for Pizza Express over Pizza Hut because they do a really nice half-bottle of house red.

You always have enough milk in.

To compensate for the fact that you have little desire to go clubbing, you instead frequent trendy bars and restaurants in the mistaken belief that you have not turned into your parents.

The benefits of a pension scheme become clear.

You actually find yourself saying "They don't make 'em like that anymore" and "I remember when there were only 4 TV channels" and "Not in my day...."

Instead of tutting at old people who take ages to get off the bus,You tut at rowdy school children.

When sitting outside a pub you admire their hanging baskets.

You find yourself saying "is it cold in here or is it just me?

THE THING!!!!!!!!!

At first we thought it was a mouse.... we heard it moving over the floor. It was so big it couldn't fit under the lounge door.

It was THE single most biggest spider I have ever seen.... and those in the know how much I hate and am petrified of spiders.

Huge ups for Ian who dealt with it and 'liberated' outside into the street.... not so ups for terrifying me with it first!

We are awaiting a massive bang when the beast runs out into the road and gets hit by a car.....

yuk yuk yuk yuk yuk

The happiest moment of my life...

Happened yesterday when I discovered Woolworths sold Natural Confectionery Company lollies..... mmmmmmmm jelly snakes..... mmmm forbidden fruits
